Neot Kedumim Park

Walk the Bible at Neot Kedumim, the world’s only Biblical nature reserve, where you can see and experience the Land of the Bible! It is located between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, in the Ben Shemen forest area near the city of Modiin. It is a quiet and picturesque nature reserve dotted with olive groves and vineyards spread across 625 acres of restored landscape, recreating the physical setting of the Bible.

You can experience the Bible with all your senses. Walk through our trails of Biblical plants depicting the land of Milk and Honey and the Seven Species. Learn about the significance and symbolism in the Bible of the date palm, the almond tree, the hyssop herb and many more. Visit ancient agricultural installations like the cistern, the oil and wine presses and the threshing floor. Do hands on activities such as drawing water from the cistern, preparing hyssop seasoning (Za’atar), crushing olives, or grinding wheat. Extra activities include sheep herding, tree planting, Torah Scribe Demonstration and Biblical cooking.
